<p>You've got butterflies in your stomach, the cat's got your tongue and you'd rather eat live spiders than speak in front of a group of people (or even a few colleagues) or into the phone during an interview. But it doesn't have to be that way. In I'd Rather Eat Live Spiders: A Definitive Guide to Becoming a Successful Speaker, award-winning author and noted public speaker John Feudo discusses the importance of developing good communications skills and then offers a wealth of concrete advice on how to become a better speaker and listener. Regardless of your age, your occupation or the stage of your career, good communication skills are among your most important assets. Whether you're on the job, at home or at a meeting of your local business or civic organization, you can only be successful if you're able to speak clearly and coherently, listen effectively and think quickly. The ability to speak well is essential to the advancement professional. "Success in advancement can be directly attributed to our ability to communicate effectively. Whether we're making an ask, inspiring an alumni audience or meeting with campus colleagues, developing strong speaking and listening skills is absolutely essential," says Feudo. Anyone who needs to communicate to get through the day from the corporate CEO to the stay-at-home parent will benefit from the sound advice offered in this book. Don't let the fear of speaking get in the way of communicating effectively.</p>
